COLONIAL 4 N the estimation of most people, in this country at least, who take an inter est in the subject of home ornamentation by means of lawns and gar dens there is nothing more attractive and ap. - pealing than a colonial garden. That this meth od of displaying nature's bounty appeals to people who have the means and facilities.for indulging a taste for any sort of ornamental gar dening is eloquently proven 'by the fact that a colonial garden has been a conspicuous feature at the White House for a number of years past.

Vanity Specialist Finds Many Obstacles d s in Her Way By THURDE RAYLE BRUCE VERY good specialist finds his level by and by, but mary who are vain of their specialty get a start with. difficulty. The friendless, trust-to-luck one who comes to the city with just one little talent to depend on doesn't succeed as does the girl who can boast of doing one thing well, another thing better, and one particular thing best, and who isn't too proud to do either to get a slart. That sanguine specialist who comes to the big city with grand dreams ought to be prepared to make some sacrifices be fore she can get the big positions. There waa a mulsic teacher oneo-the kind who sneered at every other occupation but that of running delicate white fingers over piano keys. Her home town showered her with compliments until it became too nar row for her, and pastures new in Chicago was the natural alternative. She would have a choice studio in a choice locality and get choice pupils from choice families-in...
